We were starting to sing the "Rain, Rain, go away. We would like to build a house someday," song because it felt like forever since we had seen the sun! But, this week has been perfect with bright blue skies and relatively mild temps in the 50's. So, this morning was the big day! They poured 13 cement trucks, with 18,000 pounds of concrete per truck in 4 hours! For all you mathematicians out there, that's 234,000 pounds of concrete! Just amazing! They will be finishing up with leveling and smoothing, then tomorrow they will take down the forms. Next week we should start to see framing. We'll keep ya posted!
Matthew 7:25
The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.
~Hopefully our faith will be as strong as this foundation is!~
Very exciting!! Thanks for keeping us posted!
ReplyDeleteGlad we could see the finished product of all those yards of cement! Next time we come there will be a house standing tall where we all stood!
